217 Yale and Lars Relationship (1/2)
The spectators were completely silent after hearing Yale; some of them had believed that Yale was connected somehow to the Larken Clan, but by his words, he wasn't a member of the clan although he had some relation with them and didn't fear them.
Herken was also surprised because Durgan had just confirmed that the Sword Mage was the same guy that was engaged with Lar six years ago, but he had been missing, and no one had known about his whereabouts until that moment.
”So, you should be the famous Sword Mage. I didn't have any intention to force your little sister; I was just making an offer to her.”
Herken wanted to continue speaking, but he was interrupted by Yale.
”Stop with that. She is just a little girl; she can't understand the meaning behind your words, you are just cheating her because you want her talent. I have a good relationship with Durgan and Lar. Thus, I will forgive you this time. However, next time, I won't mind about who you are or who is behind you.”
Yale's words were harsh and showed no respect towards Herken, but he showed it to Durgan and Lar, so he didn't offend the Larken Clan itself.
”That is right! If you offend Liye or Wyba again, I will never forgive you. Humph, I am sure that if I tell grandfather that you offended me, he will punish you. I have trained Wyba myself, she can be considered my disciple, and she is my sister-in-law, don't touch her.”
Lar knew that Wyba was important to Yale, and after having trained with her for such a long time, she had a pretty good relationship with her; calling their relationship a master-disciple relationship wasn't wrong because Lar had demonstrated to be better to teach Wyba than Yale because the later was always far too soft with her.
Moreover, since she discovered that Yale was her fiancé, she had even more reasons to consider Wyba as part of her family in front of others. Before she was just a self-proclaimed wife, but at that moment, she had become Yale's official fiancé.
”I don't dare! I didn't have any bad intention! I swear! Please forgive me and don't say anything to your grandfather!”
Lar knew very well how to deal with Herken, who always feared her grandfather. Although Herken was stronger than her, if one looked at the position inside the clan, Lar was far more valued, and due to her personality, even elders didn't want to make her angry.
Moreover, since Herken discovered that the Sword Mage the guy who had been engaged with Lar, he didn't dare to have any thoughts to make Wyba marry into the Larken Clan without Yale's permission. After all, Wyba was just potential, but Yale had already displayed his prowess and offending him also counted as offending Lar; even a fool would know which party would the Larken Clan support in case of conflict.
”As long as you don't anger my fiancé I won't report this matter to my grandfather.”
Lar said that while hugging Yale's arm; she was too happy about having Yale as her fiancé. Of course, she didn't mind abusing her authority to help Yale.
She also didn't want Wyba to be forcefully married to a random guy just because she agreed to it without knowing well the consequences; that remembered too much her previous situation. Fortunately, Lar's fiancé turned out to be Yale who she had loved for two lifetimes, but such thing wasn't usual.
After hearing Lar, Yale finally understood well the situation. He didn't hear the part when Lar called Durgan useless brother, but by how Lar called him at that moment, he does not doubt about she being Durgan's little sister and his forced fiancée. Fortunately, he had a good self-control and didn't react after discovering it.
”This is just a big coincidence or fate? I want to avoid problems right now, and I don't want to marry, but right now I still need Lar to create the Sword Bloodline.”
While Yale thought about that, he patted Lar's head with his other hand, provoking her face to blush. He decided to delay the topic as much as he could; Yale didn't want to marry Lar nor anyone else at that moment, but he didn't want to make Lar depressed either. Yale simply didn't understand love besides the one shown to the family, in such situation he couldn't accept her, but he didn't want to just reject her either after seeing how happy she was.
